Smedley informs us, is a copy of "Baethius" (1575), also annotated by him, showing that he also was familiar with the original story of Macbeth. In this book Bacon has written the genealogy of the Scottish Kings descended from Banquo to, and including James V, comprising seven kings; but turning to the play, which appeared first in the Folio of 1623, Macbeth is shown these descendants of Banquo by the weird sisters. Each ap- pears until the last in Bacon's genealogy is exhausted : — A seventh? ...I '11 see no more; — And yet the eighth appears, who bears a glass, Which shows me many more; and some I see That two-fold balls and treble scepters carry.
Horrible sight! Now, I see, 't is true; For the blood-bolter'd Banquo smiles upon me, And points at them for his. — What! is this so?
IV, I.
The eighth king is James I, who wielded "treble scepters," claiming to be monarch of Great Britain, France, and Ireland.
The author of "Macbeth" was familiar with Scotland, and in the witch scenes shows that he derived his local color from per- sonal observation, and the records of the witch trials at Aberdeen.
